So am I the only one entirely suspicious that one day pretty damn soon we'll wake up to the red flag flying over Moscow again?

Seriously, this isn't me being...well, me.

Tell me no one else is considering this as a potential

	Not really. Though at least having the media there is exposing what everyone has swept under the rug for years. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

When you've lived through as many changes in Russia as we have, when it's impacted you as personally as it has us, you notice things.

I personally don't think it's going communist tomorrow or anything. But their economy is troubling, Putin's lack of concern for his people is heartbreaking, and the fact that they knew they were to be on the world stage and still left parts of the city in ruins? Well. It doesn't speak highly to their politics.

	The lack of concern for people? With you on that. And the politics too though that isn't really my area. That doesn't mean communism is making a threatening comeback. But you seem to ~~be para~~ know what you're talking about. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	No, it doesn't. But it also isn't impossible. Well, I did play a part in the Cold War, I do have some idea what happened. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	And a reason to be a bit over zealous about it? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	My father is considered a missing person, I haven't seen my home country since I was five, and I nearly lost everything because Communists decided I'd make an excellent political pawn. If I'm a bit overzealous, my apologies. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I wasn't trying to criticise, Florence. This place really throws a mixed bag together doesn't it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Sorry. That was a bit defensive, I suppose. Oh, it does. I once thought my life was relatively exciting, until I got here. Now I'm one of the more mundane sorts. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's no issue. I've always thought mine was pretty normal. Then again it's all I really know. (Reply to this) (Parent)
